Reliance Big Entertainment has found writers for the big screen film adaptation ofRobb Liefeld‘s comic book series Youngblood which Brett Ratner attached to direct. Liefeld tells MTV that J.P. Lavin and Chad Damiani have been working on a now half-way completed first draft of the screenplay. Lavin and Damiani are also attached to the Bryan Singer-produced Liefeld comic book adaptation Capeshooters at Warner Bros.

Bryan Singer is in negotiations to produce Capeshooters, an adaptation of Rob Liefeld‘s (photographed above) upcoming graphic novel which tells the story of two slackers who become superhero paparazzi. The duo uncover evidence that a legendary superhero is actually an undercover villain. I’m very excited that movie studios are still trying to find original superhero properties, instead of digging through the bevy of bottom of the barrel established franchise heroes. The bad news is that the screenplay is being written by J.P. Lavin and Chad Damiani, both of which work on Ryan Seacrest’s radio show and American Idol.
